19.1
The Enhanced Controller Area Network (ECAN™)
module is a serial interface, useful for communicating
with other CAN modules or microcontroller devices.
This interface/protocol was designed to allow commu-
nications
PIC24HJXXXGPX06A/X08A/X10A devices contain up
to two ECAN modules.
The CAN module is a communication controller imple-
menting the CAN 2.0 A/B protocol, as defined in the
BOSCH specification. The module will support CAN 1.2,
CAN 2.0A, CAN 2.0B Passive and CAN 2.0B Active
versions of the protocol. The module implementation is
a full CAN system. The CAN specification is not covered
within this data sheet. The reader may refer to the
BOSCH CAN specification for further details.
The module features are as follows:
• Implementation of the CAN protocol, CAN 1.2,
• Standard and extended data frames
• 0-8 bytes data length
• Programmable bit rate up to 1 Mbit/sec
• Automatic response to remote transmission
• Up to 8 transmit buffers with application specified
• Up to 32 receive buffers (each buffer may contain
• Up to 16 full (standard/extended identifier)
• 3 full acceptance filter masks
• DeviceNet™ addressing support
• Programmable wake-up functionality with
• Programmable Loopback mode supports self-test
• Signaling via interrupt capabilities for all CAN
• Programmable clock source
• Programmable link to input capture module (IC2

The CAN bus module consists of a protocol engine and
message buffering/control. The CAN protocol engine
handles all functions for receiving and transmitting
messages on the CAN bus. Messages are transmitted
by first loading the appropriate data registers. Status
and errors can be checked by reading the appropriate
registers. Any message detected on the CAN bus is
checked for errors and then matched against filters to
see if it should be received and stored in one of the
receive registers.
19.2
The CAN module transmits various types of frames
which include data messages, remote transmission
requests and as other frames that are automatically
generated for control purposes. The following frame
types are supported:
• Standard Data Frame:
• Extended Data Frame:
• Remote Frame:
• Error Frame:
• Overload Frame:
• Interframe Space:
A standard data frame is generated by a node
when the node wishes to transmit data. It includes
an 11-bit standard identifier (SID) but not an 18-bit
extended identifier (EID).
An extended data frame is similar to a standard
data frame but includes an extended identifier as
well.
It is possible for a destination node to request the
data from the source. For this purpose, the
destination node sends a remote frame with an
identifier that matches the identifier of the required
data frame. The appropriate data source node will
then send a data frame as a response to this
remote request.
An error frame is generated by any node that
detects a bus error. An error frame consists of two
fields: an error flag field and an error delimiter
field.
An overload frame can be generated by a node as
a result of two conditions. First, the node detects
a dominant bit during interframe space which is an
illegal condition. Second, due to internal condi-
tions, the node is not yet able to start reception of
the next message. A node may generate a maxi-
mum of 2 sequential overload frames to delay the
start of the next message.
Interframe space separates a proceeding frame
(of whatever type) from a following data or remote
frame.
